Students and staff at Islamiyah Girls’ High School (IGHS) are celebrating another year of excellent GCSE results, upholding the school’s strong tradition of high academic achievement.

This year’s cohort has demonstrated tremendous commitment, achieving impressive results with 94% of pupils attaining a Grade 4 or above in both English and Maths, and a fantastic 68% achieving the strong Grade 5 or higher in these core subjects. We are also delighted that 65% of students achieved the English Baccalaureate, securing strong passes (Grade 5+) in five subjects, including English and Maths.

These outstanding results ensure that Islamiyah High School continues to rank among the top-performing schools in Blackburn.

We extend special congratulations to our highest achievers:

• Taybah Malik (3 grade 9s, 3 grade 8s and 3 grade 7s)

• Thanya Rahman (1 grade 9, 5 grade 8s, 2 grade 7s)

We are incredibly proud of every single student. These achievements are a testament to their resilience, dedication, and hard work. This success also reflects the steadfast support and commitment of our dedicated staff and the parents and carers who have guided them throughout their journey.

We wish all our leavers the very best for their future studies and aspirations and look forward to hearing about their continued successes.
